Summary "Lolly Willowes: or, the loving huntsman" by Sylvia Townsend Warner is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Laura Willowes, affectionately known as Lolly, who experiences a significant life shift after the death of her father. At 28, Lolly moves to London to live with her brother's family, embodying the societal expectations of unmarried women of her time while battling the constraints of her new life. At the start of the novel, Laura Willowes is thrust into a new living situation after her father's death, moving from the countryside to the bustling city of London to live with her brother Henry and his family. Despite the apparent affection and support from her relatives, she feels as though she is being absorbed into their domestic life, losing her own identity. The opening chapters illustrate her mixed feelings about the move; she is expected to become a dutiful aunt and sister-in-law, while her internal thoughts reveal a yearning for independence and connection to her past in the countryside, emphasizing her struggle between familial duty and personal freedom.
